Do American sports seem this incomprehensible to them?

“ADAM GILCHRIST scored the second fastest century in Test history as Australia cruised into a massive lead in Perth. “

See the way things work here at ESTSN is that we either take an existing news story and exaggerate the absurd, or we just go ahead and make up something if there isn’t anything to work with.  I defy you to read this article and find any way to make it seem more absurd.

I’d like to add a funny comment to this but it’s cricket so I’ll just leave it at this:  However the hell cricket is played, Australia apparently totally rocks at it, and England sucks.

“With Michael Clarke - who finished on 135 not out - supporting at the other end, they added an incredible 164 runs in 21 overs after tea.”

“England should have had a further wicket before lunch. But Jones fumbled a stumping chance with new batsman Clarke out of his crease on two.”
